"The face of the operation is Briatore (referred to exclusively in the film by his colleagues and angry, chanting detractors as "Flavio"), an anthropomorphic radish who spends most of his time at QPR plotting to fire all of the managers."

At press time, Harbaugh had sent Michigan’s athletic department an envelope containing a heavily annotated seating chart, a list of the 63,000 seat views he had found unsatisfactory, and a glowing 70-page report on section 25, row 12, seat 9, which he claimed is “exactly what the great sport of football is all about.”

on a serious note I'm going to say Tim Beckman. Great coach at toledo and is a great recruiter. He coached at OSU a long time ago. He would be our HOKE. His name came up but since he didn't have what looked like greatness on paper, everyone wrote him off. Then when he got the job, everyone was like holy crap hes "got it". Thats been the feeling around UT since Becks showed up and I feel like if osu wanted somebody squeaky clean then beckman would be the answer.

is that even if OSU could lure Meyer out of retirement under ideal circumstances, is he (or anyone) really going to jump back into the game for a school under serious NCAA penalties, or the threat of such penalties? And would Patterson or Pelini jump from good gigs to coach for a hobbled program?

....and in the midst of an investigation which could neuter AND spay the program for years, only the most insane or most sheltered of all Division I coaches. Is there a required reading of "Denialism" for this mystery candidate to prime them for the sort of atmosphere they can expect at Ground Zero in the Horseshoe?

"Funny isn't it, how naughty dentists always make that one fatal mistake."

I think it is funny that MSU fans think so highly of Dantonio but now on the RCMB they are talking about how he hasn't done enough to warrent a position like at OSU. HALOL. A lot of people over there are worried that he will leave though and I think Dantonio will be gone in a second if they offer him the job.

"They will meet a dastardly fate here for that! There isn't a Michigan Man who wouldn't like go out and scalp those Buckeyes right now."

The best-case scenario is that Saint Dantonio applies for the job and MSU finds out about it. Then, of course, he gets turned down by TSIO and finds that his locker room isn't "his" locker room anymore, sorta like Tom Izzo found out after his Cavalier Indulgence.

He was a candidate back with Tressel in 2001. He's a couple years older than the Vest, but he's used to rebuilding jobs, played for OSU, has a solid coaching background, runs a pretty similar, conservative offense, and would be able to not harm the program for a few years while they clear themselves out of this mess.

I don't think Meyer wants anything to do during the punishment phase of OSU, which could be similar to USC. May be in 3 years when the air is clear he might be interested. It will be difficult for OSU to land a top coach if the sanctions are severe! Hopefully Brady is scrambling to pick up some of those top 2012 OSU recruits.

But does it matter if it's Meyer, or whoever? Could it be that much worse, whoever they hire? What are they going to do, go 10-0 against us instead of 9-1? Any change has the potential to be just a little bit worse for us, and a LOT of room for it to be a WHOLE lot better for us.
